Michigan football reveals uniform combination for road game at Nebraska

Michigan Wolverines football will face Nebraska Saturday afternoon in Lincoln, looking to improve to 9-4-1 in the all-time series history and 3-1 on the season. The Wolverines announced Friday afternoon they’ll do so wearing white jerseys with blue pants and white accessories.
Here’s a look at what Michigan will wear against the Cornhuskers:
Since 2021, Michigan is 5-2 wearing blue pants with white jerseys. The Wolverines lost both games with that look last season — at Illinois and at Indiana.
This is Michigan’s second road game of the season, falling 24-13 at Oklahoma Sept. 6. The Wolverines sported white jerseys with maize pants in that clash.
U-M started switching up the pant color choice much more so in 2021, debuting the blue pants on the road in a win at Wisconsin that season. Here’s what Michigan has worn in every road game since 2021:
